This week's guest is Rochelle Courtenay. Rochelle is Share the Dignity’s founder and Managing Director, but the title she is most proud of though is ‘Pad Lady’. This title came when she collected of over 750,000 packets of pads and tampons across Australia over two years. Why? Well, when she learned of homeless women going without basic sanitary items during their menstrual cycle. Most noteworthy, Rochelle decided the question was not “Why is no one doing anything” but rather “ What’s stopping me from doing something?” In March 2015 Rochelle took matters in to her own hands collecting sanitary items within her local community and distributing to local shelters. As a result, a simple idea of giving dignity to women, Share the Dignity has grown into a national charity.
